ABS-CBNNews.com adds that Jessica's participation in Glee was confirmed by TVLine.com. “Indeed, Jessica Sanchez, whose monster pipes and near-perfect pitch carried her all the way to a second-place finish on Season 11 of American Idol, is nearing a deal to join Glee‘s fourth season in a multi-episode arc, TVLine has learned exclusively,” the article reveals.

In previous interview with ABS-CBN News, the Mexican-Filipina singer shared that while she had not yet tried out for a role in the show at the time, “... there are definitely things happening on the side for me,” she was quoted as saying.
